Detailed Description
This study will be a double blind randomized, controlled, parallel, study. A total of1 00 morbidly obese patients who will be scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy will be included in the study. The patients will be selected from those attending Gastrointestinal and Laparoscopic Surgery Unit, General Surgery Department, Tanta University Hospital, Tanta, Egypt. The participants will be randomized into two groups by closed envelop method,

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The primary outcome of this study will be the complete response within the first 48 h after surgery. [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
Complete response is defined as the absence of PONV and the lack of a need for rescue antiemetic therapy
Secondary Outcome Measures
- change in the level of the biological parameter vasopressin [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
5 ml of venous blood will be withdrawn from each participant by antecubital venipuncture. Blood samples will be centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min to separate sera. Sera will be kept at deep freeze (-80°C) until analysis of serum concentrations of vasopressin
- change in the level of the biological parameter dopamine [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
5 ml of venous blood will be withdrawn from each participant by antecubital venipuncture. Blood samples will be centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min to separate sera. Sera will be kept at deep freeze (-80°C) until analysis of serum concentrations of dopamine
- change in the level of the biological parameter substance p [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
5 ml of venous blood will be withdrawn from each participant by antecubital venipuncture. Blood samples will be centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min to separate sera. Sera will be kept at deep freeze (-80°C) until analysis of serum concentrations of substance p
- change in the level of the biological parameter Serotonin [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
5 ml of venous blood will be withdrawn from each participant by antecubital venipuncture. Blood samples will be centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min to separate sera. Sera will be kept at deep freeze (-80°C) until analysis of serum concentrations of Serotonin
- change in the level of the biological parameter Tachykinin 1 [The first 48 hours after surgery.]
5 ml of venous blood will be withdrawn from each participant by antecubital venipuncture. Blood samples will be centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min to separate sera. Sera will be kept at deep freeze (-80°C) until analysis of serum concentrations of Tachykinin 1
